The locals in this Spanish hillside clearly felt that such a sign was necessary.

Signs - Instructions: #02/14 Hunt the Hazard

Saw this outside a construction site and thought it was a great way to get a safety message across to the workforce

Signs - Buildings: #16/16 Shoes for Dogs?

The fashionable shoe shop, Freeman Hardy & Willis, once occupied many a high street location in the 20th century. But this one in Hitchin is now the home of the Dogs Trust.

Signs - Buildings: #14/16 Hoardings and signs

Four years later, in 2026, this view is the same along this Romford street. Hailed by the local authority as a great redevelopment, sadly, it remains an unfunded dream.

Signs - Buildings: #13/16 Shut the Gate

A clear message with a clear penalty. But I wonder how many seeing this will know what a shilling was. I smile every time I walk past this gate in Hitchin.

Signs - Buildings: #12/16 Burton the Tailor

Men of a certain age may have bought their first suit from a Burton shop. Now an online operation, some high street shop signs remain part of the cultural heritage, as seen here in Abergavenny.

Signs - Buildings: #11/16 LCD TV’s

Do you remember the excitement of getting your first LCD TV? This shop in Sutton, seen in 2023, clearly couldn’t keep up with the pace of change.

Signs - Buildings: #09/16 Double Arrow

Signs - Buildings: #08/16 Surrealism

A large poster for a large building in 2022, advertising a Tate Modern exhibition. I wonder what’s on at the moment?

If you fancy seeing ‘emerging and underrepresented artists and practices’ I recommend a trip to NW8

Signs - Buildings: #06/16 Debenhams

The doors are shut in many locations across London since this department store went into liquidation in 2020

Signs - Buildings: #05/16 Keep Out

Sad to see local pubs shutting down, but the signs are quite clear. Seen here in 2022, the Two Brewers in Dartford is in a sad state of decline.
